GM Vintage Vehicle service will hook you up cost about $60 but love what they sent on my El Camino just tonnes of info

And CONGRATS love the T-Tops you'll need to bring both out next year

Thanks Layla!! We'll see if this one will be ready by next summer. It all depends how far I end up diving into the car. Not sure if I'm going to do a frame off yet or not. If I do, it won't be ready by then!!

Cool car John! I will be keeping my eye on this thread at first I thought you had a change of heart on color.I can hardly wait to see the two side by side I wonder if Myrna would let me, no I better not ask for that too!

Well I'm into the Rochester Quad rebuild so far. Parts are stuck in NJ as from the aftermath of the Hurricane I'm thinking!!

Does anyone from the Greath White North have any sources up here for parts? I know of Ultimate Performance, and a few others, but any suggestions are greatly appreciated!! I'll be looking for suspension, all exhaust, brakes (I'd like to upgrade to disc on the rear), and I'm sure others as I get further into the car. I'm just looking for sources in Canada if possible.

Early Birds in Barrie Ontario is the place to go for parts in Canada.
Tell them the guy from Gilbert Guitars sent you.

That is going to be a fun little project!I'm looking forward to watching this beauty transform!Here is "Princess" and if you need any help or someone to bounce ideas off off, contact Bad Z-28.Attachment 440654

It runs!!! After ordring a carb kit from Quadrajet Parts in the U.S., and trying to figure out how to put it all back together (as usual, I tore everything apart 3 weeks ago while waiting for the kit) it started up right away!

When I bought it, the guy did start it, but ran extremely rough, and it only started once.....then we couldn't get it running again. Towed it onto a trailer and brought it home, with the family helping me unload and push it into the garage. (I have such a great family.....they only laughed at me for the first 5 minutes!! )

I have a little more comfort now knowing I didn't buy a complete piece of S*^T!!!

Runs a little to high on idle, but that will be an easy fix. The engine is burning a bit of oil, but that didn't surprise me....one more thing to source....just need to decide if I'm going to rebuild this one or chose more HP....decisions, decisions!!

Time to load it onto the hoist and start on the suspension, steering, and brakes, and exhaust (depending on if I keep the original 305 or not though).
